Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of tofu production and relates to a lactone tofu packaging machine. Background Art
[0002] Large-scale packaging of rennet tofu is typically performed on a rennet tofu packaging machine. This process involves multiple processes, including boxing, heat sealing, and film cutting. The heat sealing process typically involves heating a sealing head to a set temperature using a heating device. The head is then driven down to the tofu box mold. The sealing head and the mold work together to heat-seal the plastic film to the tofu box. To ensure adhesion between the sealing head and the plastic film, a high-temperature cloth is typically placed at the bottom of the head. However, the heat conduction efficiency of the high-temperature cloth is limited. Therefore, the head needs to be heated to a higher temperature, which wastes energy. Furthermore, the flexible high-temperature cloth has poor molding properties, which also affects the heat seal quality. Utility Model Content

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments of the present invention. Figure 1-4 :
[0024] A lactone tofu packaging machine includes a circulating conveyor belt driven by a power device, two groups of tofu packaging box molds are arranged side by side on the circulating conveyor belt, and a box feeding component, a grouting component, a defoaming component, a film placing component, a heat sealing component and a discharge component are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction, which can simultaneously package two groups of tofu. The structure and working mode of the box feeding component, grouting component, defoaming component, film placing component and discharge component of this embodiment, and the power device and driving structure of the heat sealing component are the same as those in the prior art and will not be repeated here.
[0025] Compare with Figure 1The heat sealing assembly includes an upper base plate 1 driven by a power device. A lower base plate 2 is elastically connected to the lower portion of the upper base plate 1. A sealing head unit is connected to the lower portion of the lower base plate 2. The sealing head unit includes a heating block 3 and a copper pressure block 4 connected to the bottom of the heating block 3. The copper pressure block 4 is adapted to fit a single tofu packaging mold, and the bottom of the copper pressure block 4 is provided with a Teflon coating. The heating block 3 is activated, heating the copper pressure block 4 at the bottom to a predetermined temperature. When the tofu packaging mold moves to the bottom of the sealing head unit, the power device drives the upper base plate 1 downward, and the lower base plate 2 and the sealing head unit connected to the lower base plate 2 also move downward. The copper pressure block 4 contacts the plastic sealing film, and the plastic sealing film is fixed to the tofu packaging box by heating. Since the bottom of the copper pressure block 4 is provided with a Teflon coating, the heated plastic sealing film will not adhere to the copper pressure block 4.
[0026] Compare with Figure 2 In order to meet the packaging requirements of two groups of tofu, the bottom of the heating block 3 is connected to two copper pressing blocks 4 arranged side by side, and the copper pressing blocks 4 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the tofu packaging box molds in the same row.
[0027] In order to improve the heat sealing quality, this embodiment adopts a two-step heat sealing method: two lower bottom plates 2 distributed front and back are connected to the bottom of the upper bottom plate 1, and the bottom of the lower bottom plates 2 are respectively connected to head units, the front head unit forms a preheating head unit, and the rear head unit forms a solid heat head unit; further, the heating temperature of the preheating head unit is lower than the heating temperature of the solid heat head unit.
[0028] The specific connection structure of the heat sealing assembly of this embodiment further includes: the upper base plate 1 and the lower base plate 2 are spaced apart and connected by a plurality of upper bolts 5, the upper bolts 5 are fixedly connected to the upper base plate 1 and slidably connected to the lower base plate 2, and the upper bolts 5 are sleeved with a pre-tightening spring 6 whose two ends respectively contact the upper base plate 1 and the lower base plate 2, and the pre-tightening spring 6 provides a buffering effect during compression, so that the copper pressure block 4 can press the sealing film and prevent equipment damage; the lower base plate 2 and the heating block 3 are spaced apart and fixedly connected by a plurality of lower bolts 7, and the heating block 3 arranged at intervals prevents heat from being transferred to the lower base plate 2, causing heat waste and equipment damage.
[0029] Compare with Figure 3 , this embodiment further provides a device for cutting the sealing film:
[0030] A cutter assembly is provided on the front side of the upper base plate 1, which includes a lifting cylinder 8, a cutter 9 and an L-shaped connecting plate 10. The bottom of the cutter 9 is provided with horizontal serrations. The top plane of the L-shaped connecting plate 10 is connected to the piston rod of the lifting cylinder 8, and the front plane is connected to the cutter 9; the lifting cylinder 8 drives the cutter 9 to move downward to cut the sealing film.
[0031] Compare with Figure 4 , this embodiment further provides an adjustment component for the tofu packaging box mold.
[0032] An adjustment assembly is provided on the front side of the lower base plate 2. The adjustment assembly includes an adjustment plate 11 driven downward by a power device. The bottom of the adjustment plate 11 is provided with a positioning paddle that is inserted into the gap between adjacent tofu packaging box molds. When the packaging film deviates, the packaging film cannot accurately match the tofu packaging box, thereby affecting the quality of the film sealing. When the positioning paddle is inserted into the gap between the tofu packaging box mold, the packaging film can be pulled, thereby positioning the packaging film and adjusting the distance between the tofu packaging box and the packaging film, so that the tofu packaging box is realigned with the position of the packaging film. Of course, the adjustment assembly of this embodiment only adjusts the backward deviation. When the packaging film deviates forward, other means are required for adjustment. For example: the positioning black spot on the packaging film is detected by a packaging film sensing switch. When the packaging film deviates forward, the brake device of the film winding device is activated, and the cylinder is used to pull the brake device to generate friction, thereby reducing the rotation speed of the rotating shaft, causing the film to shift backward. After reaching the standard position, it resumes normal operation.
[0033] Furthermore, the adjustment plate 11 is connected to the bottom of the lifting bar 12, and the lifting bar 12 is slidably set on an adjustment base 13 fixed to the lower base plate 2. A pull rod 15 driven by an adjustment cylinder 14 is provided on the adjustment base 13 for transverse sliding. The bottom of the pull rod 15 and the top of the lifting bar 12 are provided with a matching inclined surface 16. When the adjustment cylinder 14 pulls the pull rod 15, the lifting bar 12 is driven downward through the matching inclined surface 16; further, a return spring is provided between the pull rod 15 and the adjustment base 13, and between the lifting bar 12 and the adjustment base 13.
[0034] The adjustment plate 11 includes a vertical mounting section, a rearward-bent middle section, and a downward-bent positioning paddle; the mounting section is used to fix it to the lifting bar, and the longitudinal dimension of the middle section ensures that the paddle can align with the gap of the tofu packaging box mold.
[0035] The above-mentioned adjustment component includes a sensor for monitoring the position of the tofu packaging box mold. The sensor is electrically connected to the controller of the adjustment cylinder. When the sensor detects that the tofu packaging box mold is deviated, the adjustment component is activated to make adjustments.
[0036] The above embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
